The little Conmt rclal world in this county
is looking OH at our factory efforts With an
anxious eye. Throw nothing In the way tu
Impede its progress. The right man is at tie
head of it. His heart is In the enterprise.
But he can do little without the united efforts
of our whole people.

factory boom is to offer your land fora
building site ii an unmarkc!abc value. To
refuse TO subscribe because sou can't have IL
! built just where You want IT.. To talk 1t out
Of existence. We mention these few ways OF
killing this enterprise that Our citizens may
steer clear OF them.
